Cool anime characters don’t always use swords or rely on super powers.

Some of them rely on their vulture-like eyes and steady hands, in short, gunslingers.

That being said, we’ve collected these 7 coolest gun-wielding characters in the anime world. 

1. Brandon Heat from Gungrave

A quiet man who believes that action speaks louder than words, Brandon always let his guns do the talking.

Wielding his signature guns, a pair of magnum with red and white crosses across its black body, Brandon Heat seeks for revenge against his former best friend Harry and the crime syndicate.

2. Revy from Black Lagoon

Although she’s a woman, her ability to wield firearms is second to none and is not even comparable to anyone in the Black Lagoon universe.

Her favorite is a pair of beretta 92F’s but she can wield different kinds of firearms as well.

People in the Black Lagoon universe said that if she’s wielding her two guns, she becomes unstoppable because of her crazy shooting skills.

3. Death the Kid from Soul Eater

Holding his two guns upside down and firing his guns with his pinky fingers, who would not say that Kid is one of the coolest gun user characters in the anime world?

Besides, he is able to keep his impressive accuracy even with that shooting form!

4. Reborn from Katekyo HItman Reborn!

There’s no arguing that he’s the most popular and maybe the best hitman of all time in KHR’s Mafia world.

He never misses hitting Tsuna in the forehead and that alone proves his incredible marksmanship.

5. Vash from Trigun

This one of the coolest gunslingers in anime history also wields one of the most popular guns in the gun history, Colt 45.

And because of his superhuman agility, vulture-like eyesight and cat-like reflex, he is allowed to use the Colt 45 far better than anybody else. 

6. Spike Spiegel from Cowboy Bebop

This carefree, Jericho 941 user is an expert bounty hunter who is very adept in hand to hand combat and highly skilled in using guns.

Talking about carefree, Spike doesn’t really feel anxious or fear in front of any very deadly situation, he even let his lady luck guide him on his journey and that makes him number two on my list of coolest gunslingers in anime world.

7. Alucard from Hellsing Ultimate

.

Though his powers are near infinite and has a lot of inhuman abilities, Alucard still wields his signature over-sized handguns named Casull and Jackal.

These two guns are said to be perfect for a demon as they are extremely modified with unique specifications to perfectly fit with Alucard’s incredible speed and unbelievable accuracy that made him as the coolest gun user anime character.
